The two Israeli men in a moving van who tried to get past security officials at
Kings Bay Naval Submarine Base without proper identification last Friday will
soon be released, the MadCowMorningNews has learned, if they haven’t been
already.
The
arrest of the two Israelis, Tamir David Sasson, 24, and Daniel Henry Levy, 23,
prompted a security scare that shut down the Kings Bay Naval Submarine Base in
Georgia, home port for 10 of the nation's 18 submarines armed with nuclear
missiles.
Moreover
it marked the second time in two weeks that Israelis in moving vans have been
apprehended under suspicious circumstances near U.S. nuclear facilities.
The
other reported incident also occurred near a U.S. Navy nuclear facility, this
time in Mars Hill, NC., which the local Sheriff explained is "the nation’s sole
provider of fuel for the Navy’s nuclear subs."
If
authorities discerned a pattern, they weren't saying.

Coach... Again.
But despite headlines like
“Movers Who Prompt Kings Bay Lockdown To Be Deported” and “2 Israeli
men face deportation steps” and statements by Navy officials that the men
“likely face deportation,” instead of facing immediate deportation after being
turned over to the INS in Atlanta sources indicate the men will most likely bond
out and disappear.
So while it represents a
happy ending for the two Israelis, the men’s release raises questions about
prior statements by officials and offers puzzling evidence for which no
explanation has been forthcoming.
